Advanced AI technologies are starting to play a bigger role in TAVR care, helping cardiologists plan ahead, make critical decisions and predict potential complications. Looking to the future, though, it is clear this is just the beginning. 

It is still unclear which imaging exams President Donald Trump underwent to evaluate his cardiovascular health. The White House shared a memo Monday as an attempt to put this topic to bed—but questions remain. 

The new software, announced at RSNA 2025 in Chicago, was built to evaluate CCTA images for signs of coronary artery disease and improve cath lab efficiency. 

TAVR is increasingly seen as the preferred option for symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, and clinical guidelines in the U.S. reserve their highest recommendations for patients who experience symptoms. Asymptomatic patients, meanwhile, are typically managed by clinical surveillance or a “watch and wait” approach; no symptoms means no treatment.

Abdominal obesity, the phenomenon commonly known as “beer belly," may be associated with significant risks, including heart failure. Researchers urged cardiologists and radiologists alike to keep these findings in mind going forward.

Hospitals could be turning away high-risk heart patients to help their TAVR programs receive a higher ranking, according to new research published in JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions. 

The update follows weeks of uncertainty and speculation after the president revealed he had undergone an MRI.

The WVU Heart and Vascular Institute is hosting a two-day symposium focused on exploring the benefits and long-term potential of robotic aortic valve replacement. Fans of the procedure say it represents a safe, effective alternative to TAVR and SAVR in patients with severe aortic stenosis. 

BeamO combines electrocardiogram sensors, a stethoscope and a thermometer into a single device that patients can use at home to learn more about their health. Findings can then be submitted for a cardiologist to review.

The Association of Black Cardiologists hopes to improve widespread disparities in care through the use of patient education, free diagnostic heart screenings and other proven methods. 

The nationwide movement of nurses against AI has received an energy infusion.

The infusion system modules can malfunction if dropped or jarred without the user noticing. Manufacturer Becton Dickinson is asking owners to inspect the devices to ensure they are safe to use.
